everytime I start my car it'll start but the RPM's will quickly drop and it'll turn off, however if I rev my engine usually around 2.5 to 3 RPM's it'll stay on but i notice a puff of White Smoke from the exhuast and it only puffs after i Rev? Any ideas what it might be?

you mean while your car is warming up? it pushes out white smoke then goes away once you hit full operational temp?

Kind of, the Smoke only last for a second, like there was unburnt particles left in the Manifold, it has a sulfer kind of smell to it to, but after that 1st puff it stops smoking. and it has rough starts in the cold thats usually when it pushes out the most smoke |
